# Move the Dotz vs Oculux

The clearest difference is ads: Move the Dotz at none against Oculux's shown. Move the Dotz also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Oculux's advantage is ratings volume (198 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Move the Dotz sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Oculux sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Move the Dotz holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Oculux has 198 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Move the Dotz's written reviews are positive against 87% of Oculux's.

Move the Dotz ships an update fortnightly, Oculux every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
